Manual for Open and Full Icecat Product XML

Version 2.6 (Updated on July 7th, 2026)

Icecat XML is a powerful and standardized format designed to deliver structured product information for e-commerce platforms and online marketplaces. By leveraging Icecat’s product catalog, channel partners can seamlessly integrate up-to-date product content into their systems. This manual will guide you through the structure of Icecat XML, helping you understand how to retrieve, parse, and use the data effectively to enhance your product presentations and improve the shopping experience for your customers.

Where to start?

The basic setup, Icecat product identifiers and API comparison is described in 🔍 Manual: How to Import Free Product Content Into Your E-commerce System via Icecat API

Open Icecat Fair Use Policy

Icecat provides a Free Open Icecat subscription with access to the Open Icecat repository.

The Open Icecat repository is the part of the Icecat XML repository that is sponsored by Brands and is provided for free to the channel. The most recent list of Open Icecat brands is here.
Open Icecat is also useful for testing purposes before you upgrade to Full Icecat. The technical structures are 100% compatible with those of Full Icecat.
We require any user of Open Icecat product data – in a free Open Icecat subscription or as part of the Full Icecat data – to respect the Open Icecat Fair Use Policy.
Explicitly relevant for website development is:

• to mention explicitly the “Specs Icecat” on all product datasheets, with a link to Icecat.biz.
• to include explicitly an AS IS Disclaimer, an example of which is here: English Disclaimer.
• to not use Icecat data for AI training.

How to use Product XML API?

There are two types of XML Links endpoints, though the output is the same.

1. Export Links – appear in most Icecat export files, such as PCF, PIF, and Index files. While straightforward, they are not the focus of this article, as they only allow a product to be requested by its Icecat product ID. The output is identical to the Product XML for XML_s3.
   Example: https://data.icecat.biz/export/<AccessLevel>/<Lang>/<Icecat_ID>.xml
2. XML_s3 Links – This client-oriented API enables product searches by GTIN, Product Code, Brand, as well as meta requests. Throughout the article, any mention of XML requests refers to the XML_s3 request.
   Example: https://data.icecat.biz/xml_s3/xml_server3.cgi?lang=<Lang>&prod_id=<Product Code>&vendor=<Brand>&output=productxml

Every Product XML strictly follows the following XML Schema Definition (XSD). XSD ensures that the XML document follows a specific structure and that the data inside is correct.
The XML repository files comply with the standard Icecat XML response DTD, which is located here.
Apart from XML, Icecat is compliant with an increasing number of international standards. See here a quick overview of such supported standards.
You can utilize GET and HEAD HTTP methods for retrieving the product information. GET will return a regular output with a product datasheet, while HEAD will only indicate the existence of the product.

XML s3 Helper

Product request by Icecat product ID (Open):

XML_s3 Request Parameters

lang

Language (Locale) short identifier. The explanation could be found in the manual 🔍 Language Table

To get the full taxonomy, refer to LanguageList.xml, explained in 🔍 Manual for Reference Files XML

If you feel that your language or the language that you need is missing, feel free to contact us. Probably we can work something out.

Important notes about 🌐International locale:

• XML API is the only API in Icecat that accepts INT locale (lang=INT).
• INT response includes data for all locales activated in your account,
• In case your account has INT locale activated, you will receive data for all locales in Icecat.
• INT response is significantly bigger than for the standard locales, it is not recommended to open such requests in the browser.

prod_id

Product Code – described in API Overview, Icecat Identifiers section.

💡In the files.index.xml and MetaXML requests, the official Product Code is a value of Prod_id attribute, while the mapped Product Code is a value of M_Prod_id attribute.

💡Product Codes are always upper-case and may contain characters that should be URL-encoded. For instance, # needs to be replaced with %23. Other examples: @, &, =, etc.

vendor

Name of the Brand of the requested product – – described in API Overview, Icecat Identifiers section.

ean_upc

GTIN, EAN, or UPC code to identify a product – described in API Overview, Icecat Identifiers section.

icecat_id

HEAD Request

HEAD requests provide a lightweight way to check whether the product exists in Icecat.

You can only get three responses for product XML HEAD requests:

• ✅ 200 – product exists in the Icecat Database.
• ❌ 401 – You did not pass the login and password to your request.
• ❌ 404 – The product does not exist / your credentials are incorrect / your IP isn’t whitelisted.

After receiving ✅ 200, you can send a GET request to check whether the datasheet is available for your account.

• Localized – Feature might have Local_ID or International ID. The localized attribute shows which of the IDs is present in the product. In case the feature has only an International ID, it is not Localized ⇒ Localized is equal to 0 (FALSE), otherwise, it is 1 (TRUE).
• ID – presentation value ID.
• Local_ID – local presentation value ID.
• Value – raw value.
• CategoryFeature_ID – which CategoryFeature group the Feature belongs to. Can be matched with CategoryFeaturesList.
• CategoryFeatureGroup_ID – which CategoryFeature group the Feature belongs to.
• No – Priority indicator. The higher the number, the more important the feature is for buyer orientation.
• Presentation_Value – fancy-looking value. 🌐 For International locale, the INT value is provided. Therefore, if the feature does not have it, the attribute might be empty. Localized Presentation_Value is provided in the separate tag below.
• Translated – if the feature has a translation.
• Mandatory – Is mandatory within a category.
• Searchable – is recommended for search and filtering on reseller’s product search.
• Optional – specifications tagged with Optional=”1″ are not standardized specifications in Icecat. These specs are used only for supporting automated data imports from brands to avoid losing attribute values.

💡Use the Presentation_Value parameter in localized data-sheets for display of a data-sheet, and use the Value parameter for search and compare.

<PresentationValue>

🌐 Exists only in International XML and only inside <PresentationValues> tag.

Fancy-looking values to show for UX purposes for all locales you are assigned to.

<LocalValue>

LocalValue is a transformation of the international Value according to the local dictionary and the applicable Metric/Imperial value system. For the US, the values will be shown in inches; for Europe, in centimeters.

For local applications, we advise using LocalValue for search and comparison functionalities.

⚠️ International XML will have a special tag <LocalValues> which will have all Local values.

<Measure>

You can check the Measures using the MeasuresList export file.

<Signs>

Visual representation of a measure (″ for inches).

<Feature>

Contains only FeatureID. Can be matched with the FeaturesList export file. Measure and Signs are the same.

<Name>

Reference Files

Files with Icecat taxonomy. Please check the 🔍 Manual for Reference Files XML

Almost all files are present in gzipped format. The typical use of the files is in combination with data from the INT (international) directory, not the localized directories, as there the language-specific values are already automatically applied to the product XML files.

To benefit from your server scripts from gzip, you must use in any HTTP request this additional parameter:

Accept-Encoding: gzip

Refer to the manual on obtaining Icecat export files. The manual outlines the steps to retrieve these files, ensuring a seamless integration with your data processing needs.
